My research interest is mainly on etiological factors in female cancers. In the project "Women's Lifestyle and Health" we try to identify potentially modifiable risk factors for cancers of the breast, ovarian, endometrium, colorectum and skin, as well as for cardiovascular diseases (myocardial infarction, stroke) and overall mortality. I am also interested in factors affecting cancer survival. I coordinate the Ugandan collaboration on infections diseases and cancer, where we are studying the role of infectious agents such as HIV, human papilloma viruses (HPV), and EBV in the etiology of cancer of the cervix uteri, conjunctiva, and Burkitts Lymphoma, hormones and cancer, cancer research in developing countries.
